"Artists need to make money to eat and to continue to make art. Artists used to rely on middlemen to collect their money on their behalf, thereby rendering themselves innocent of cash-handling in the public eye. Artists will now be coming straight to you (yes YOU, you who want their music, their films, their books) for their paychecks. Please welcome them. Please help them. Please do not make them feel badly about asking you directly for money.” -Amanda Palmer

Fantastic!  I love that the design is based upon your photography, another one of your well-known hobbies.

Good luck!

I forgot to mention that I am searching for a name.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

For some reason, Moving Pictures sounds good to me at first but gets steadily more ugly on the jug handles; eventually, I feel such a suggestion should be laughed at.

I still like the idea of photos moving at high speeds being part of the name. Can anyone name me the art/photo equivalent of Fast Food?

Artcar Kinkade: Painter of Light?

Seriously, Paul, this is super-rad. Share photos once that beauty's on the road! (Er, not that I have to tell you...)

Take a photo of the artcar and put in ON the artcar!

Take a photo of your artcar with a photo of your artcar on it with a photo of your artcar on it. Continue the recursions until it's no longer ironic.

This is a good idea.

Van-Go? (probably better for a Van Gogh inspired van...)
Snap-Shot-Gun?
Snappy Van?
Art-Cara-Van?
Snap-Shots on a Mother-Fuckin' Van?
This-Van-Is-A-Rockin'?
The Holly Paul-ly Van By Golly?
Artcar Memoir?

(edit: thought of a couple more:)

Chevy-a-Bevy-a-Memories?
The Mustachioed Fellow in the Van of Yellow?

Damn, I just thought of a good one, but it won't work.  Kodak Momentum.  But I use Nikon cameras (I love to take a photograph). But the yellow is supposed to suggest Kodak film so maybe... I don't use film though.  I don't know.

I like the Mustachioed Fellow in the Van of Yellow.

"Click, Click, Vroom" amuses me, but you'd probably not want to be associated with that POD song.

V.A.N.N. would be fun in a Knight-Rider-y way if you wanted.

There's also the famous ETMF, which would probably lead to a whole lot of wrong guesses.

Van Buren?  Muttonchops!

Van Allen?  Radiation belts!

Van Wilder? Crappy movies!

Click Click Boom was Saliva. IIRC it was on the list of "banned songs" immediately after 9/11. Although POD has a song called "Boom" as well.

Anyway. ETMF?
